Praise for Freeman's: California "The work is wide-ranging, by newcomers and established talents: Xuan Juliana Wang, Elaine Castillo, Frank Bidart, D.A. Powell. It tells the story of California in pieces, which is the only way it can be told . . . The point--or one of them--is that, in California, one must learn to persevere. In this collection, California in all its glorious complexity comes vividly to life." -- Kirkus Reviews "California--land of golden dreams, proud melting pot, home to both the poor and the unimaginably rich--is an amalgam. Her complexities are captured in the essays of Freeman's: California , which reaches across time and cultures to indicate what the state means to its variety of inhabitants . . . For those whose dreams carry them westward, Freeman's: California will prove to be a knowing guide, diving deep into the contemporary state, from its southern border up to its golden gates." -- Foreword Reviews Praise for Freeman's "There's an illustrious new literary journal in town . . . [with] fiction, nonfiction, and poetry by new voices and literary heavyweights . . . alike." -- Vogue.com "A terrific anthology . . . Sure to become a classic in years to come." -- San Francisco Chronicle "Ambitious." -- O Magazine "Freeman draws from a global cache of talent . . . An expansive reading experience." -- Kirkus Reviews "Looking at what John [Freeman] has put together in [his] first edition, I'm struck by how many names I don't know and how diverse and global it is. My only disappointment is that it's going to be twice a year--I think we need it 4 times a year." --James Wood, Radio Boston "Illuminating . . . Perfect reading for our ever-accelerating times." --NPR's Book Concierge "Freeman's is fresh, provocative, engrossing." --BBC.com "A first-rate anthology of bold, searching and personal writing by emerging and established writers." -- Minneapolis Star-Tribune "From the abstract to the literal, there is no shortage of provocative, thoughtful pieces here." -- Publishers Weekly "Freeman's sets a new standard for literary journals . . . It's refreshing and full of nuanced stories that will linger with you long after you finish them." -- Chicago Literati "[An] infinitely relatable and beautifully crafted prose and poetry anthology . . . Freeman has assembled a thoughtful and profoundly accessible collection of work that connects our vulnerabilities, our expectations and our hopes." -- Newcity Lit "[A] thrillingly unique collection of voices." -- Toronto Star, Praise for Freeman's: California "Captures the western state's complex history through the eyes of both new writers and established names . . . From every facet of the literary world, this cacophony of fresh and well-known writers with every award under their collective belts movingly interprets struggles and dreams in the Sunshine State." -- Shelf Awareness (starred review) "The work is wide-ranging, by newcomers and established talents: Xuan Juliana Wang, Elaine Castillo, Frank Bidart, D.A.

Work by Lauren Markham, Robin Coste Lewis, Héctor Tobar, Jennifer Egan, Oscar Villalon, and Rachel Kushner elevates it to a necessary piece in a literary California collection." -- Los Angeles Times "Captures the western state's complex history through the eyes of both new writers and established names . . .

Karen Tei Yamashita tells of a Japanese-American man going to Hiroshima after the bomb dropped, writing letters home. Reyna Grande witnesses her mother never adapting after migrating from Mexico. Tommy Orange conjures a native man so lost and broke he's either going to rob a bank or end his life--but love might rescue him. Rachel Kushner sings a hymn to the danger and beauty of cars.

    Unfortunately I received a damaged book, the item and the package both were damaged and it was clearly evident its appearance that it happened during transit. The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.

    I buy books from this seller all the time. The books are extremely affordable. Every once in a while there's an issue but more often than not, the outcome is positive. Packaging is just a thin sleeve with no bubble protection. This leaves the books open to damage in shipping. However, the seller ships for free. Book was actually in better condition than described - a nice surprise & greatly appreciated!! 👍 Thank you very much, seller!! I'll be back with another order!! 😀
